The Dance
(audio version)
---
written
and recorded by Dennis Parrish
July 3, 2006
inspired by contemporary artist Annie Marcelino's
"The Dance" (image below)
Using multi-track recording, The Dance is comprised of 17 guitar tracks,
(using a single Taylor electric/acoustic guitar) with each part
introduced
about every four bars, including the
percussive sounds which are
produced by tapping, knocking, or
scratching the guitar surface in
various areas.
On July 8, 2006, I had the rare
pleasure of performing The Dance
live in Rome, N.Y. (using an
electronic phrase loopback device) for my
8th grade music teacher Mr. Rocco Vacca, whom I had not seen
in
40 years.
